Hi,
I have looked up many of the products that have good reviews and almost all of them are way out of my budget 
Anyway, I am wondering if anyone knows of a good, proven to work product that may be cheaper in price (as I am not interested in brand names, just results)?
What I am looking to do is get rid of the pores on my cheeks underneath my eyes, and I have some eye wrinkles and puffiness I would like to reduce. Then also I would like to firm the skin for a more contoured, chiseled facial features.
Any suggestions? Thank you so much for your help  |

Hi cutevalleygirl,
I'm from London where the price of skincare is quite high. When your talking about firmness it usually means anti aging and then the price goes skyhigh. I have stumbled across an American brand which is fairly reasonable over here and which gave me good results called Gale Hayman.
For the puffyiness under the eyes try the Eye Lift Gel, honestly the difference is fantastic.
And to tighten and firm I have found amazing results with her Youth Lift which I use as a primer before makeup but it can be used every day. Check the prices out onwww.qvc.com I'm sure there reasonable plus you have a 30 trial period.
For cheap wrinkle and pore diminishing products I'm sorry but I can't help you, I'm sure you'll get loads of advice from the rest of the gang.

Hi Happy,
Thank you very much for the info. I did go to the website but maybe they no longer carry the product because I did a search but they do not carry it. If I am wrong, where abouts did you find it on the website? Is there a different website I could try?
Also, is there a specific name for the products you mentioned besides Gale Hayman Youth Lift etc....?
Thank you again, you're a great help  |

Hi cutevalleygirl,
Sorry for the bum information, they sell Gale Hayman quite cheap on the QVC UK website wwww.qvcuk.com. I do know that Gale Hayman has a website of her ownwww.galehayman.com although it looks quite pricy, check if you can buy it from the UK, much cheaper (I know they sell the Youth Lift and Eye Lift Gel together for around £17.00).
There is also another website that has some special dealswww.galeskincare.com
Altough I haven't used it I have heard good things about the Le Mirador brand on QVC USwww.qvc.com they sell full size packages around the $40 - $60 and the sizes are quite large so they should last around 4-6 months.

| You could try the CellularSkinRx.com C serum for changing the texture of your skin and firming it up. Is $38 too much for you? Most C's cost about twice that. This one is very good, works well. Also, have you tried any AHA products? AHA (glycolic/lactic acids) can change the texture of your skin as well. There are many very inexpensive drugstore brands like AlphaHydrox that might help though I wouldn't recommend they be used under your eyes. |

If you want a good and more importantly cheap AHA you might want to look at Alpha Hydrox line, the reviews on makeupalley.com where very good. They have a 10% glycolic acid for about $10. Personally I use MD Formulations but only because 10% AHA is very hard to find in Australia.
Cheers,

Thanks for all the replies 
Which products help reduce pores the best? I am very concerned about the skin on my cheeks underneath my eyes. They practically look like scars as the pores are so big in places. Will a simple toner help such as Nutrogena? But which of the above products would help specifically with pores?
Thanks again!!!! |
